COS 2- ORGANIC COMPOUNDS & BORDER CONTROL (Moving substances across cell membranes) 2. Describe cell processes necessary for achieving homeostasis, including active and passive transport, osmosis, diffusion, exocytosis, and endocytosis. (Chapter 4)
Identifying functions of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids in cellular activities (Chapter 2)
Comparing the reaction of plant and animal cells in isotonic, hypotonic, and hypertonic solutions (Chapter 4)
Explaining how surface area, cell size, temperature, light, and pH affect cellular activities (Chapter 4)
Applying the concept of fluid pressure to biological systems. (Examples: blood pressure, turgor pressure, bends, strokes) (Chapter 4)

Here is the concept map we did in class.... Sorry the picture is a little blurry around the edges. 4. Nucleic acids: reads: Are important for: -> Making DNA and RNA (found in the nucleus) -> Also makes up APT- the energy molecule made in the mitochondria. Monomer Building Blocks=> nucleotides (1/2 of a DNA ladder)

CHAPTER 4- Movement across Cell Membranes (COS2-b)
2. Describe cell processes necessary for achieving homeostasis, including active and passive transport, osmosis, diffusion, exocytosis, and endocytosis.
This exercise introduces the dynamic complexes of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids that comprise cell membranes. You should learn that membranes are fluid, with components that move, change, and perform vital physiological roles as they allow cells to communicate with each other and their environment. We also show that membranes also are important for regulating ion and molecular traffic flow between cells,and that defects in membrane components lead to many significant diseases.
Knowledge of the cell membrane and the protein channels play a huge role in treating and understanding conditions like ADHD. Why does stimulant drugs work on people with ADHD by allowing them to focus, where as a normal person would be hyped up? Explore this link into how scientists found out that one of the proteins that should regulate dopamine in the brain actually works backwards in people with ADHD nd stimulants only reverse the process rather than adding to the stimulant effect.
